Icon3 Did anyone buy the 1948 seamaster?

Thought this was a pretty beautiful release from Omega, anyone got it?

They are all sold out.

I actually have one on order, but I am thinking that I will not keep it. I will likely just pass when it comes in. But I am not 100% sure yet.

A beauty of a watch, but not really for me at this time.

I've ordered the small seconds variant. Very much looking forward to it. Great size and nicely proportioned dial. The one thing a lot of brands forget these days is legibility. Plus no lume on a dress watch!!! Just a tad annoyed I those waiting (myself included) have not received one yet. Fingers crossed end of this year.

Which one did you order? Small or central seconds?

Hey brother. Sorry for my delay.

I prefer the small, which is what I ordered. But they are both really special.

Asked on my list recent happenings though, I’ll def not be keeping. I can’t afford this hobby anymore. Lmao.
